Mazrim Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Had a great gig playing behind Grealish who most teams at least doubled up on. When made to do his job he was like a headless chicken and painfully slow. He seems a bit bitter now too. Meh. I won't miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Xela Posted June 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2022 No issue with Targett. Did a very good job for us for a while and now we've replaced him with a far superior player. I'd have liked him to stay and fight for his place but lets be honest, he'd always be second choice. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Solid player. Never rocked the boat or courted controversy. Wanted to play in January and whilst Gerrard publicly stated the shirt was up for grabs, you aren’t signing a new left back for 25 million to bench him. Wish him well.

sne Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Would have wished him good luck if he'd gone to most other clubs. Anyway thanks for your service and stay safe. If you hear a chainsaw revving then just run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) Didn’t want to fight for his place in the team, didn’t enjoy playing in front of our fans after COVID, always pretended he was injured when he was against somebody who was ruining him for pace. Complete bottle job and his comments about dressing rooms and leaders speaks volumes about him - pretty sure Emi M said he was soft. Not up for a fight in any aspect, I assume he’ll do the same thing and leave when Newcastle want competition for places in 12 months time. All the best.

Vive_La_Villa Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Good Luck to him. Seemed a nice lad and wish him all the best. We were always going to improve on him and as I said Newcastle will eventually do the same. Definitely a decent Premier League full back but will good enough for a team with aspirations of Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect to Targett if this is the calibre of their signings this summer I don’t think we have to worry to much about them next season .

We move on, and so does he....The memories was good for both of us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 This is actually our first big sale of a player we signed since coming back. 15m for a fullback that is deemed no longer good enough for us is actually good business imo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said earlier, that I actually think this is just a " safe " signing, at a decent price, in case they miss out on other targets. I really don't think it's any indication of their broader aspirations or signings at all to be fair Woudont even surprise me if they signed another LB this window lol. Fans up there do love him though. Edited June 8, 2022 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine he switched our bench for there’s! No doubt they will be paying him more though. He’s turning 27 soon and is now financially sorted until the age of 31. Can’t blame him for moving.

Demitri_C Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 All we have to do next season is stick bailey on his side and that would be enough ti cause some serious problems. Targett is pretty useless against pacey players. Sarr absolutely obliterated him last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
